I want to put a big brake kit on the rear of my Cobra and can't find anything I was wondering if there are any brake kits that would fit with minor to moderate fabrication

What's on the front?

Reason I ask is because the Cobra brakes on the rear are adequately sized for the weight and bias of the vehicle and short of installing an aftermarket front brake setup, it's generally not advised to increase rear bias.

Now, if the fronts have been upgrades, I would look for a corresponding rear kit from the same manufacturer. For example, Baer has the 6S brake setup for the front that does have a matching rear setup.

I plan to put wilwood 6 piston brakes in the front and the stock rears will look super small

Wilwood has matching rear kits for their front setups.

For example

I'd advise speaking to wildwood and going with their matched rear setup to whatever front setup you go with
